The fellow, Steven, who calls me from that number keeps saying that  I have been approved for a $9200 government grant... but I never have applied for a grant! LOL !

This reply is late - but! When you went into the Western Union Office did you READ the form? You are given a multi-page form. Page 1 contains, in BIG black letters, all the warnings about what NOT to use Western Union for. The short version is this: NEVER use it for ANYTHING other than money to family or friends (real ones), nothing else EVER!.

this is new? someone called and scammed you out of moneyin regard to loan?

provide me with as much info as you can, number they called from, time of day, called cell or home, as much as you can remember about conversations, male, female, i mean anything you can remember at all, i will see what i can do. i can't promise you the world, but i can promise i will try my best. the robo-calls got me mad enough to find the scumbags, anything you can provide post it. you said you sent money, by what means, credit card, bank transfer, money order, cash, pony express,  I DO NOT WANT ANY OF YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION, it just helps very much to know how they are requesting payment. also, can you track the trail of the payment at all? like what bank or finacial institution it was transfered to, what country etc...

do not feel bad, i consider myself one of the best in the world in the field of digital forensics, and even my bank was hacked about 3 months ago and every, i mean every penny i owned was gone in 20 minutes (i monitor transactions, the method they used was the signed debit withdrawl, started at a large amount, then 50% of that amount then 50% of that amount, etc till nothing left)

bank did not do a thing, they restored the funds, issued new numbers etc.

took me about 3 days...

brazilian scumbags, had an illegal in dallas with a shell terminal

anyways, i'll try if you like when i get a little time



cheers,
disco


EVERYONE NEEDS TO REMEMBER 1 VERY IMPORTANT THING!  TO FIND THE BAD GUYS PEOPLE LIKE ME HAVE TO KNOW HOW TO DO WHAT THEY DO. IN EVERY SITUATION THE ONLY WAY A SCAM CAN WORK IS AT SOME POINT, SOMEWHERE IN THE WORLD SOMEONE HAS TO PHYSICALLY WITHDRAW ACTUAL CASH MONEY OR TURN THE ELECTRONIC FUNDS INTO A COMMODITY, GOLD, BONDS, ETC...  IN ORDER TO TURN THE ELECTRONIC TRANSFER INTO AN UNTRACABLE ASSET! SOMEWHERE ALONG THE LINE SOMEONE HAS TO PRESENT THEMSELVES!

I fell for it :( i sent money through my account to this gere dude and got nothing back. what do I do?! I worked hard for the money I send them. will I get it back?

This number called me about a payday loan and I sent the number Western Union to a Frederick Gere. I was concerned but needed the money for car repairs badly. Once the money was confirmed, I began speaking with another person who claimed I owed back taxes so he would need another $150 for insurance. I think they use payday loan ads for data mining. They confirmed my banking account info so I will need to close it, but I am talking to the authorities right now. Come to think of it, I think this number tried to scam me to pay off a payday loan, but could never say which one.

Well I'm a dumbass cause I fell into the scam! Cause I paid $175 for a loan. But wanted it to go through into my bank account but never received anything.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN!!! THIS IS AN ANNOYING NUMBER THAT FILLS YOUR CALL ID ,THE NUMBER IS 202-558-0091..NO MESSAGE IS EVER LEFT. IF I PICK UP THE PHONE THERE IS NO RESPONSE...I CALL THE NUMBER BACK A VERY INDIGNANT PERSON  RESPONDS ! WHEN ASK NICELY TO PLEASE REMOVE MY NUMBER FROM THERE CALL LIST, HE SLAMS THE PHONE DOWN!
I INFORMED THE PERSON I NEVER HAVE & WILL RESPOND TO ANY TELEMARKETING SERVICE!  HE ONCE SAID I HAD FILLED OUT SOMETHING ABOUT A LOAN & HE NEEDED TO VERIFY! I AGAIN TOLD HIM I DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN ANY KIND OF PHONE SCAMS!  I HAVE BEEN COURTEOUS TO THIS PERSON & WOULD APPRECIATE MY NUMBER BE REMOVED FORM THERE CALL LIST>
THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME & CONSIDERATION.

ok I guess I may have spoke a little soon. as soon as I hit submit a few minutes ago, I received a phone call from another number similar to this one. it is 202-697-9866. I let him know immediately that I am not interested and he said ok and hung up. he was not rude like the other but don't let them fool you. they are scamming trash.

this guy calls my number and starts to tell me that I am approved for this loan and I must pay 180 before I get the loan. when I explained to him that I would not send them anything he hung up on me. so I called him back. I asked why he would hang up if it is real and he told me just hang up and let it go. he hung up again. so I called again. I told him exactly what I thought of him and his so-called company. he told me if I called again then he would f*** my a** up. and he hung up. well I am very persisstant and I called him again. He answered the phone hey d*** sucker. i told him, you want to harass me for the past wk callin my phone 20 times a day so I will now do the same and I cursed him up and down. needless to say this was bout an hour ago and now my phone is silent.

HERE IS THE INFO ON THE FULL TRAIL FOR THOSE INTERESTED...

huckabee insulates himself from the robocalls in this manner:

1. he is not officially affiliated with the "Repeal Healthcare Act" movement (see this wensite for more info RepealHealthCareAct.org) even though his voice is on the robocall recording
2. this is how he insulates himself, hope you are ready, i am a digital forensics expert and took me about a day to put this together, so it gets a little complicated, but it is all 100% correct! if i was not always right then i would not have my reputation nor an income!




First let me say i am a hardcore republican, always have been! This is not about trying to discredit the republican party by any means what so ever! I can not stress that point enough!

This is strictly about my mother and myself recieving constant unwanted phone calls even after being put on the fcc do not call list and selecting the option presented in the robocalls to no longer be contacted. i contacted the fcc, the state republican party, the nation republucan party, my congressman (who is a great man, he did his due diligence), i even contacted the mormon church to complain about one of thier members, romney, making these calls. nothing worked.

so i had enough, i took a whole day last week and devoted it to using my expertise to track these scum bags down!



it starts out with millions of U.S. residents getting constant robocalls asking for donations to the romney campaign, donations to huckabee for various projects, donations for the repeal obamacare moveent, eben lately asking for money for hurricane sandy victims and get this even ads to sell cruises!

the calls almost always show a 202 washington DC area code, but sometimes use a washington state area code or a georgia area code

the numbers that show up on caller id are all false. they use a voip robocall system that trys to spoof the origin of the call. if you try to dial any of the numbers caller id displays you will see they are invalid numbers. (btw, i will not get into it, but MAJOR FCC VIOLATION!)



although even though his voice is on the majority of the robocall recording, huckabee almost got away with this. He took several smart and calculated steps to distance himself. Myself and people like me are contracted by homeland security to do these sort of recon projects. So he picked the wrong person to do this to.

huckabee is not officially associated with any of these groups i will talk about

here is how it works...

huckabee just hints at the fact that he supports:
Citizens United - 202-547-5420
1006 Pennsylvania Ave SE - Washington, DC 20003

Officers and Board of Directors

David N. Bossie, President and Chairman of the Board
Burtonsville, Maryland

Michael Boos, Vice President and General Counsel
Manassas, Virginia

Brian Berry, Director

Austin, Texas

Douglas L. Ramsey, Secretary-Treasurer
Seattle, Washington

Ron Robinson, Director
President, Young America's Foundation
Reston, Virginia

John Bliss, Director
Denver, Colorado

Kirby Wilbur, Director
Duvall, Washington

but does not have any official associating with them. from the best i can tell they use this group as the 'front' because its is not funded officially by a party or a super pac, etc.

BUT, Citizens united does endorse a group called

Restore Americas Voice, which is a super pac

Official PAC Name:
RESTORE AMERICA'S VOICE PAC
Location: STAFFORD, TX 77477
Industry: Misc Issues; Other single-issue or ideological groups
Treasurer: OTIS, MAUREEN E

here is where it starts coming together

the restore americas voice super pac funds http://repealhealthcareact.org/

the repeal healtcare act movement.

the repeal healthcare act movement contracted a company called

poltical media inc is the actual company who is paying for
the robo-calls to be made. so you can see that there is
an extensive murky trail that insulates the sum bag huckabee,
but like i said i am good at what i do!

when i first called political media to tell them to quit
calling me they tried to deny knowing anything about what
i was talking about, but after i started reading off all the
information i had, i was put on hold for about 5 minutes and
another man was put on the phone, apologized and said by the end
of the business day i would be removed from the robocall list.
i have not recieved a call since!


all of the information is there for you have the fact checkers verify
it if you like. i am sure they probably are already used to it,
but there is always a few minutes of resistance upon first contact
until you state what you already know. then they comply.

millions of people would appreciate a story exposing this issue,
there are millions of posts on websites asking for the calls to stop!
just most people have no clue even where to begin to trace phony numbers through voip systems. i do!

i stated before i am a republican, support the party, but now in my eyes
huckabee is a fraud and a scumbag! i thought about just setting up my
own robocall system spoofing and rolling numbers to call his house, office, cell phone, and fox news every 5 minutes 24 hours a day 7 days a week, but i figured this was the proper way to handle the situation as it will help so many other people.

a last side note, all of the various ads on tv that ask people to
call 1-800-599-1068 to donate or submit thier opinion,
etc are also connected though this same trail.
Call Type: Political Call

they wont leave me alone they just dont get it! and when you ignore them they threaten you and say you are gonna be arrested :(  I wish they would leave me alone :(

This is a criminal extortion scam operating out of India. They are making the calls utilizing VOIP and the names of legitimate firms to make it appear the calls are originating from within the US. There is NO "company" or "debt" and you will NOT be arrested. They are harvesting and/or buying consumers' personal identifying information from unscrupulous websites like the one you may have filled out an application with, and you need to do whatever you can to protect yourself. This includes: Notifying the FTC: https://www.ftccomplaintassistant.gov/, placing fraud alerts with all three credit bureaus, notifying your bank and employer and letting these criminals know you are aware they are attempting to extort money for a non-existent debt and have alerted the authorities.

ABC News released an investigative report on this scam in June. The FTC has indicted one of its ringleaders for criminal fraud:
